Weekly Rant


Who died and made Rosie O'Donnell the judge of todays society!?


Apparently Rosie O'Donnell thought it would be cute to rag on American Idol yesterday on The View. Rosie apparently said that its sad that America takes Simons comments and making fun of people as entertainment.

UH HELLOOOOO!? Who just came off of a 3 week publicity stunt making fun of Donald Trump? Rosie is a comedian for God's sake!.. She thrives off of making lewd comments about celebrities and politicians.


Here is a quote from the show:“Isn’t that what America thinks is entertainment?” O’Donnell asked. “To make fun of someone’s physical appearance and then when they leave the room laugh hysterically at them – three millionaires, one probably intoxicated …”


My response is Rosie get a damn grip! The people who go on Americna idol know exactly what they are in for. Speaking of the quote unquote 'Bush Baby" as Simon put it he could not sing to save his life. Yes, we would all like to think the world is nice and fuzzy and looks dont matter but welcome to the real world. How dare you go on a show about finding the next "Big Superstar" and not be able to sing a note in tune?

That's my rant for the week!

Artist Of The Week - Amy WineHouse




This weeks Artist is .. AMY WINEHOUSE!

While working at a retail store during the Christmas Holidays (No names) I was cursing under my breath for not getting a break and I heard this song that caught my attention. It's called Rehab and its kinda catchy. I ran up to the cashier and said "WHO IS THAT?" and she kissed her teeth and said "I dunno". Nevertheless it was none other than our Artist of the week. Here are a couple of her tracks.


Listen to: REHAB

Miss Nia...



Is on the cover of Essensce... just beatiful!!!

Crazy ass New York...

Here is an excerpt from a recent interview with Karu Daniels, otherwise known as "New York" Enjoy...

So are you from Rochester or Syracuse?
You know what baby? Actually I’m from upstate New York, New Hartford New York. So that’s even farther up there. It’s past Buffalo, it’s cold, it’s just a weary little city.

And now you’re putting Upstate New York on the map.
You know what baby? Yes. I’m definitely putting Upstate New York on the map and I’m happy to do it.

You’ve been described as the “Grand Diva of Arbitrary Emotions.”
What? Are you serious?

Well that’s what it says on VH1.
Well you know what baby, I really don’t go on the ‘net that much because I don’t have that much time to do stuff like that. But if that is out there for me, you know I’ll take it. I’ll be that. I’m that then. Okay.

It’s all about the internet.
It truly is. I should be ashamed of myself but I’m not. I don’t really get online as much as I should but that’s a great title to hold.

What do you in your pastime?
In my spare time, I’m basically giving a lot of attention to my nails and my skin. I’m a real huge skin person. I’m constantly washing my face making sure it’s clear and clean and making sure my nails are clean. I’m just a big skin and nails person. I hope that doesn’t sound too weird but that’s what I do in my spare time — making sure that everything is on the up and up.

You save that for ‘Essence’ magazine.
What? (laughing loudly)

Wow.. What a stylist can do for you!
